Soil Health Assessment to Evaluate Conservation Practices in SemiArid Cotton Systems at Producer Site Scale

Soil Health Assessment to Evaluate Conservation Practices in SemiArid Cotton Systems at Producer Site Scale

Maintaining soil health and sustainable crop production has been challenged by climate variability and wind erosion in semi-arid regions. To understand the initial effects of the transition of tilled cotton systems to no-tillage with winter wheat as a cover crop, we sampled 18 commercial grower site...
